Inspired by this NY Times article, I decided to post this little announcement … Yesterday at the highly successful and fun monthly blogger meetup I host, my bag containing a notebook and my digital camera was stolen. It was taken between 9:00 and 10:30 PM from the outdoor seating area at Pharoah’s Rock N’ Blues in Adams Morgan, located at 1817 Columbia Rd. NW, Washington, DC 20009. The suspects who were loitering nearby just before the bag disappeared are two white males, estimated age 17-20 years. One approached us trying to sell a CD player, still in its original packaging.
The actual bag stolen was entirely dark blue, the camera is a Nikon Coolpix 2200 in a small black case, and the notebook is 8.5×5.5 in size, has a red cover, and contains miscellaneous notes. Give me my stuff back, you little punks!
Man, what are you doing leaving a 200 sumthing camera and notebag alone inside the district?????? Dude you live in a city not hippy Arbor. I read your blog on the regular and find it insightful but you had to know better……Sorry about your loss, I hope those bastards die of severe gingavitis or gangreen….Cut your losses and buy new stuff, maybe its covered under some insurance or what not…
Oh crap man, I’m sorry to hear that. At least they didn’t get your Treo, right?
That is terrible. I’ve been robbed before, although it was a little more violent, but regardless, it’s always maddening. I hope you find your stuff.
Very sorry to hear, Rob. Hope things go better.
Ugh! That’s horrible. Sorry to hear this happened to you Rob.
